Estimated adjusted operating income is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP, and may not be comparable with the measures as used by other companies. Nevertheless, the Company believes that providing non-GAAP information, such as estimated adjusted operating income, is important for investors and other readers of the Company’s financial statements and assists in understanding the comparison of the current quarter’s and current year's income from operations to the historical periods' income from operations. (1) Estimated nonrecurring expenses were related to various efforts to exit the products businesses, salaries and benefits of terminated employees, and transitioning the corporate office and activities from Dallas to Tucker.

Estimated adjusted EBITDA is not a measure determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, commonly known as GAAP. Nevertheless, Williams believes that providing non-GAAP information is important for investors and other readers of Williams' financial statements, as they are used as analytical indicators by Williams' management to better understand operating performance. Williams' credit facility also contains ratios based on EBITDA. Because estimated adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure and is thus susceptible to varying calculations, estimated adjusted EBITDA, as presented, may not be directly comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies. (1) Reclassified $14 and $2,202 in 1Q 2018 and 2Q 2018, respectively, from severance costs, as previously reported, to restructuring charges. (2) Estimated nonrecurring expenses were related to various efforts to exit the products businesses, salaries and benefits of terminated employees, and transitioning the corporate office and activities from Dallas to Tucker. The quarters do not sum to the full year number as the relevance of the variances were realized at year-end with the completion of the restructuring and transition.

Company Confidential 2020 Non-GAAP Guidance Note Regarding Forward-Looking Non-GAAP Financial Measures The Company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their comparable GAAP financial measures because it could not do so without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of the information needed to calculate reconciling items and due to the variability, complexity and limited visibility of the adjusting items that would be excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures in future periods. When planning, forecasting and analyzing future periods, the Company does so primarily on a non-GAAP basis without preparing a GAAP analysis.
